in your deck i see the card holy day. i feel its a bit weak and almost a filler, i would recommend path to exile over it. as you are playing a early game deck the disadvantage of them having an extra land does not matter a huge amount as this card helps clear the path of things stopping you.
p.s. i didn't read the comments there are to many so sorry if this has already been covered

It hasn't but I never thought about that. I'll consider that, but Path to Exile lets your opponent get a land card and put it onto the battlefield from there deck and that might cause more problems.

maby but as a rush deck you do need to get there scary things out of the which will stop you rushing your opponent . also you never want to use his card before turn three or the advantage they get is a problem. but if you can kill them fast i think there is no problem in giving a land because they cant use it. but if you really dont want to use path to exile change holy day is so bad in play , you could have 4 game changing cards in its place.

I took the day to reflect on your idea on Path to Exile and i came up with this; I'm going to take out four Holy Day and put in four Journey to Nowhere . I think that will work. It gives my opponents something to use there Erase or Naturalize on instead of my enchantments. I was thinking Chained to the Rocks was going to work then i realized it's enchant mountain you control so that wont work

I vote Path to Exile over Journey to Nowhere simply because Path to Exile is a white staple in modern were as Journey to Nowhere is not and also that one less mana goes a long way plus its a instant. The only time I would use Journey over Path is if I have some enchantment deck going on even still Path can be even better.

Alright If 2 people are telling m the same thing I should listen to them. I'll talk what you've said into consideration and I'll pick up some Path to Exile
when I get the money. thanks for the advise

If you are going to have ghostly prison then maybe think about Norn's Annex as well, maybe as sideboard.

I really like Norn's Annex . But im considering just pulling Ghostly Prison all together.

I would put in Mosquito Guard over Elite Vanguard . First strike is actually more useful early game than the extra power. Plus if you don't want to use him later-game you can just discard him and toss an extra +1/+1 counter on something.

Thats good but im trying to keep it mono human soldier so i can use Bonds of Faith on every creature in the deck if needed.

Hi,
After playtested we can say that all your hand is put near t4 / t5.
So, nice aggro deck, but if you want some more longevity, try to add Mentor of the Meek .
I dislike the Ghostly Prison , because it doesn't help you so much (the more your opponent attack, the less he can block) and Bonds of Faith are too weak i think (i mean : isn't a creature greater than a boost/block spell in your deck?).
If you search for a quick t1 creature don't forget Student of Warfare .
Also, you can probably find something interesting in my mono-white human deck :

Its funny when I first built this deck he was in it. But he slows me down. On turn two I can play 2 Boros Elite or 1 Precinct Captain . I'm leaning torward 1 drop creatures mainly

Aggro means aggressive and quick deck =)
wikipedia explains greater than me :

Like you i prefer playing more 1drop creatures than a Precinct Captain (which is blocked every time he attacks)
Get a 4th Champion of the Parish ! =)

Hey, I've got a fairly similar deck, it's a white weenie as well with more of a lifegain theme, If you could check it out that would be awesome, the link is here Soul Sista

This may have been said -- I didn't ready every comment -- so if it has, sorry. BUT... I love decks like this, and my one suggestion would be to replace the Elite Vanguard with 4x Dryad Militant instead. Functionally, they're almost identical -- except the Dryad also "does something", much like the Soldier of the Pantheon does. Most of the time it won't matter a bit, but if you're playing against a deck with lots of flashbacks, Dredge, a strategy based around Deathrite Shaman OR any reanimator style decks. She isn't a Human, but she does have the all-important Soldier type, which is probably good enough since most of your synergy is based around that, rather than Humans.
Just my 2 cents, hope it helps!

Pretty nice build, +1 :) Have you considered splicing red to have access to Lightning Bolt (and possibly some sideboard goodies)?
January 2, 2014 9:39 a.m.
I while back i put in black for the use of Grave Pact and it worked a little bit but it was too slow. I feel this deck will function best on mono white. But maybe later on i'd consider putting in red.

I have also built a standard white weenie deck, mine includes Hopeful Eidolon for a turn 1 play, then turn 2 for 2 x Ethereal Armor as he adds to the enchantment count to swing for 7/7 lifelink on turn 2, if you have a third Ethereal Armor in your hand, then you can swing for lethal on turn 3.
January 9, 2014 6:18 a.m.
Thalia, Guardian of Thraben is good but she slows down my enchantments so idk. As for Hopeful Eidolon I'm trying to keep it mono white human soldier.

Maybe splash blue for 2x Sphinx's Revelation . Because you were looking for a draw spell.

I have Ghostly Prison in there as a safety net. So say i have prison out and a bunch of creatures and I attack with them all then the Ghostly Prison prevents them from attacking with everything unless they have a crap load of mana.
